Have you ever experienced unintended launchings of an email application by clicking mailto: links in web browsers? Usually, when you click mailto: links in web browsers, even if it is unintentional, an email app launches immediately.
By using Mailto Interceptor Lite, you can select the following behaviors for the click of mailto: links:
- Ignore mailto: links
- Copy email address (with Option key, you can copy mailto: URL)
- Pop up a menu that allows you to select launching email app and behaviors described above
The standard version of Mailto Interceptor has the following features in addition to Lite version:
- Open a URL in web browser (e.g. Composing view of web mails)
- Edit pop up menu items
- Launch an email app you installed from pop up menu
Mailto Interceptor Lite is not a resident app. By setting Mailto Interceptor Lite as the default email app for the click of mailto: links, it launches without appearing and bouncing the dock icon, performs the preferred behavior and quits automatically.
In addition to the click of mailto: links in web browsers, Mailto Interceptor is also launched from the share menu, Contacts app, and other sources.
Usage:
1. Launch Apple Mail.app.
2. Open Settings window.
3. Go to General tab.
4. Choose Mailto Interceptor Lite at Default email reader.
By doing initial settings above, Mailto Interceptor Lite reacts mailto: links and so on.
